Are you using moused or trying to use the mouse directly from X?

I found that I had forgotten the proper procedure for getting the wheel to work 
correctly the last time I configured a new machine. 

If you are using moused, make sure you use the -z flag and probably have it look like 
this:

moused -t auto -p /dev/psm0 -r high -z 4

In rc.conf I have:
moused_enable="YES"
moused_flags="-r high -z 4"

Then, in XF86Config the only thing you have to do is make sure that you are using 
'Auto' or 'Sysmouse' as the mouse protocol, /dev/sysmouse as the mouse device and have 
the line:

"Buttons" "5"

In that section. If you do it this way it should work.

I am not completely sure how to set up the mouse with the wheel bypassing moused and 
doing it directly with X, but I believe you just have to change the port and protocol 
(probably to 'Auto' and '/dev/psm0', respectively) and add:

"ZAxisMapping" "4 5" 

To the XF86Config file.

I use the moused method, and it has usually worked for me. The only time I have ever 
had mouse wheel problems was when using a KVM switch that did not seem to present the 
mouse capabilities properly to FreeBSD during boot.
